FAN-ART: Benedict Cumberbatch Is Marvel's Sorcerer Supreme, DOCTOR STRANGE

FAN-ART: Benedict Cumberbatch Is Marvel's Sorcerer Supreme, DOCTOR STRANGE

Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock) has been a fan-favourite choice to play Doctor Strange since long before he entered talks with Marvel recently, but this latest piece of fan-art may give us our best idea yet at how he'll look if and when he stars in the Scott Derrickson helmed 2016 release...

Doctor Strange (2016) - Teaser Poster by CAMW1N

Many thanks to deviantART user CAMW1N for this very cool take on Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange. The Hobbit star hasn't officially been announced as playing the Marvel character as of yet, but he is in talks and believed to be close to signing on the dotted line sooner rather than later. Of course, we thought the same thing about Joaquin Phoenix, so we'll have to wait and see!

Thanks @Sipprelle, but I've been posting on CBM for over five years now and don't need your advice on where one of my articles should be categorised. :)

That looks nothing like a drawing in a comic book! So inaccurate!

I'm still kinda hoping Leto gets it...

I dig this pic. Looks nice. Add some gray streaks and we're good to go.

@0megaDaGod lmao, yeah, you're probably right, well we know if James Gunn was helming, we'd get this...

If he is indeed Dr. Strange then they need a great actor to go against Cumberbatch! And I never say stuff like this since its fan casting, but Mads would be the only actor worthy to go head to head with such a commanding presence as Cumberbatch!

@GuardianAngel

Ex-[frick]ing-actly. Give an actor black, wavy hair, a goatee, some bitchin' threads and you got Doctor Strange. The argument that Benedict Cumberbatch somehow doesn't match a drawing's exact facial features (facial features which vary depending on which artist is drawing the character) is more than absurd.

Cumberbatch was my initial choice when the shortlist was rumored. Crossing my fingers that it will be confirmed.

@batz11 I'm right there with you. Let Leto have it!

I'm not disappointed with Cumberbatch, but, he is not my first choice at all.

I'm thrilled that it's looking likely that Cumberbatch is Dr Strange. He's a great fit for the role and a very exciting actor. If you'd seen his Creature in Frankenstein you'll know just how edgy and exciting he is. I love all the art work of Cumberbatch as Strange. The one I posted above by Rahzzah is my favourite.

LMAO 0mega, yeah, I agree, Gunn should be the music man for all Marvel movies...

This looks great. Marvel needs to confirm this ASAP.

Some great artwork, guys! If you all ever get the chance to check out the play Frankenstein with Cumberbatch as the monster, you'll see why he's such a brilliant actor. He's made for this role, IMO.
